Samsung Galaxy S5 Priced At Rs 51,500

Samsung had recently unveiled the Galaxy S5 smartphone and it is now available in the market for Rs. 51,500. It is noteworthy that we had indicated that this would indeed be the price for the fifth iteration of the Galaxy device.

The phone runs Android 4.4 Kit Kat, and while it still has the TouchWiz UI, it has been cleaned up to look a lot better.




Samsung Galaxy S5 comes with a 5.1-inch display. It comes with a removable back cover as well. Inside the S5 boasts a 2.5GHz Snapdragon 800 processor with 2GB of RAM, an IR remote, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0 BLE/ANT+ and Cat 4 LTE. At the time of launch, Samsung had showed two variants of Samsung Galaxy S5, one with 16GB internal storage while the other had 32GB.

Samsung Galaxy S5 packs in a hefty 2,800 mAh, and the smartphone comes with some power-saving features. So apparently, even when your phone hits 10 percent, it can last another 24 hours on standby. Additionally, the S5 comes with USB 3.0, a 2.1 MP front-facing camera, and a dual-LED flash.

The display is the same 1920 x 1080 Super AMOLED screen as the S4. That's a little disappointing as we had rumors that Samsung Galaxy S5 display will be significantly upgraded to 2560 x 1440 pixels. But less pixels also means less battery drain.

The camera, on the other hand, has bumped up quite a bit to 16MP and comes with a whole slew of new features.

The S5 also comes fitted with a heart rate monitor, which is built into the back of the phone on the same part as the LED flash. Team it up with the S-Health app, and your S5 is also a fitness tracker.

We feel that a more realistic price for Samsung Galaxy S5 is around Rs. 45,000 to 47,000. Do let us know what you think about the same in the comments below.
